I seem to be finding a lot of really bad signs these days. I actually found two in the same day. I didn’t think about taking a picture of the second one though. I always seem to forget about the camera on my phone. So, I have to go back to the grocery store and get a picture of the other sign.
But, for now, here’s the latest, greatest finding that I have to report:
Where’s the mistake? Well, it should say cannons instead of canons.
A canon is a law or rule. It is also a group of books, particularly religious books. It is also a term used to describe a church dignitary. Of course, it’s also the name of a large, electronics company.
A cannon is a weapon, or in this case a large water gun.
It’s a mistake that should have been caught by someone at the amusement park. But, even worse is the fact that the mistake obviously slipped past the printing company too. What a shame.
So, now I’m off to get a picture of the other sign. I wonder how many other “sign snafus” I will encounter!
